Magic: The Gathering Draft Tournaments
Want a way to play that offers a level playing field and lets you check out new cards at the same time? Then a limited format like booster draft may be for you. Unlike constructed formats, where you arrive with a carefully constructed deck ready to play, limited formats allow you to build a deck from new cards as part of the game.
At the start of booster draft, each player opens a booster pack and picks a single card. (Don’t show the other players what you pick!) Then everyone passes the rest of their pack to player on their left, each player then picks a card from the pack they just received before passing again. This process continues until all the cards in those packs have been drafted. Then each player opens a second pack, but this time, you pass the pack to your right. After all those cards are drafted, you do the same with the third pack, passing to the left again.
Netrunner Tournament
In Android: Netrunner, you and your opponent constantly vie for better information, the strongest economy, and the control of valuable data. Corps attempt to secure their business plans within massive servers, layered with lethal traps and formidable ice, while Runners seek to navigate these virtual labyrinths. Each cat-and-mouse game is full of bluffs and counter-bluffs, with vast, virtual fortunes and the well-being of millions of people at stake!
Organized Play is your portal to connecting with other passionate players who play the games you love. Our goal is to help players join a global community and create memorable and exciting game experiences all over the world.
Many different levels of Android: Netrunner Organized Play exist so that you can enjoy the game the way you want, whether you prefer to focus on casual play at Game Nights, meet new players at local tournaments, participate in the formalized competition of larger events, or challenge the world’s best at our Android: Netrunner World Championship in November.
Warmachine Tournament
In Steamroller tournaments, players face off in a series of games and pit their skills against a gauntlet of opponents to determine who will emerge victorious. Steamroller is ideal for groups of 8 to 128 players and promotes fast and furious play while stressing the ability to adapt to a variety of scenarios.

Sean Patrick Fannon
Tabletop RPG and Games designerSean Patrick Fannon (aka “Big Irish” or SPF) has been professionally involved in tabletop RPGs, computer games, and entertainment for over a quarter-century. His dozens of projects have included Hero Games’ Champions product line; both West End’s and Fantasy Flight’s Star Wars RPGs; various World of Darkness books; and the Savage Worlds Epic High Fantasy setting, Shaintar.
He was the Events Coordinator for GAMA (helping run both Origins and GTS), and chronicled the entire roleplaying game hobby and industry in The Fantasy Roleplaying Gamer’s Bible, which sold over 10,000 copies. He worked for DriveThruRPG & RPGNow as the Marketing and Communications Director; during that period, he helped coordinate massive charity and relief efforts for folks like Doctors Without Borders and Feeding America, leveraging the RPG community’s generosity. He continues that tradition as a member of the Board of Directors for the RPG Creators Relief Fund.
Sean now focuses on his own gaming company, Evil Beagle Games (“Bad Dog. Good Games”), as well as serving as the Brand Manager for the Savage Rifts line. He’s working directly with Pinnacle Entertainment and Palladium Books to create an entire line of books to bring the classic Rifts setting to Savage Worlds fans, which he says is his most challenging design project ever. He’s also working on the official Savage Worlds setting book for Freedom Squadron, a love letter to G.I. Joe based on the VENOM Assault board game from Spyglass Games. He’s also well underway with Modern Gods, a setting for the upcoming Prowlers & Paragons Ultimate Edition (a superhero game system he co-designed with Len Pimentel).

Self-Published Author
Ted Fauster
Ted Fauster
Self-Published AuthorTed Fauster writes both science/fantasy, which is a hybrid of fantasy fiction and science fiction; and sword-and-sorcery style fantasy fiction that is strongly influenced by fantasy tabletop gaming. At the heart of every Ted Fauster book lies adventure, camaraderie, and a good quest.
In his science/fantasy, Ted explores tangent possibilities and alternate realities that push the limits of the ordinary and normal and often question what is real.
In his sword and sorcery books, characters form tight groups of adventurers who work together to overcome all odds. Along the way, there is technology to face, mysteries to be solved, monsters to battle and dungeons to be cleared.
While he remains true to his Jack Chalker/Tad Williams and Fritz Leiber/Robert E. Howard roots, Ted is also inspired by the contemporary genre masters including R. A. Salvatore, Jay Lake, Terry Brooks, Neil Gaiman, and many more.
“If it slices, hacks, blasts, battles, bleeps, zooms, or fizzles, it’s probably somewhere in one of my books.”

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
